Dog Moms Rule!

As foster dog Aloo (“Looie”) makes her transition into a permanent member of the Paco crew this week, we couldn’t help but notice the coincidental timing: foster-mom Josie is becoming an official “mom” right around Mother’s Day. Seriously, how perfect is that?

It started us thinking about how dog-moms deserve the same recognition as human-moms on this here Mother’s Day. If you consider it, the job is almost equally as difficult. Of course, there’s the added bonus that dogs don’t talk back (okay, maybe sometimes) or grow up to hate you, but since they emotionally mature at about the human-toddler level then there’s still a lifetime of sleepless nights and never ending poop pick-up, not to mention the day-to-day routine of feeding and care, for which you never receive any credit.

In an ideal world, the dogs would all stop, pause and properly recognize our never-ending efforts on Mother’s Day but why hold our breath… that’s never going to happen. Instead, we’ve got to take the power into our own hands and celebrate ourselves.

From Wednesday May 9 to Wednesday May 16, enjoy 20% OFF anything on the site with coupon code:

Of course, we encourage you to get something special for yourself (like belt, bracelet, or class), but since we know that the collars that make our dogs look awesome are as much for our benefit as theirs, then that works, too ;) Really, it’s your gift so get what *you* want!

As always, feel free to contact us with any questions either by email or phone, we’re always here to help.

In the meantime, go give yourself a big ol’ pat on the back. Even if the dogs can’t be bothered to pamper us for one day, we can at least have one big group hug, get ourselves something nice, and recognize the fact that while dog ownership is a lot of work, but we’re all in it for the long haul!

Holiday Hangover Hours

We’re spending the holidays with friends, family, loved ones, and just plain taking a break from the non-stop pace you’ve kept us on this season… it’s been a great year, but we need a rest!

During this time, you may expect a delay in response to emails and calls. The shop will be open for regular business hours Tues-Fri 11-7, but with the following changes:

Saturday Dec. 24, Christmas Eve: 11-3
Sunday Dec 25, Christmas: CLOSED

Saturday Dec 31, New Year’s Eve: CLOSED
Sunday Jan 1, New Year’s Day: CLOSED

As this year draws to a close, we reflect on the past year and give thanks to all of our wonderful friends and fans… we couldn’t have done it without you!

It’s Holiday Time!

Yep, that time of year is sneaking up on us again but never fear, we’re here to help!

Refer to our handy dandy guide below to help plan your holiday gift giving.  Remember, our general turnaround time is 2-3 weeks though we may be able to fast track certain requests through faster.  Allow maximum allowance for orders including Fetching Tags or Bits.

So yeah, it’s time to get in the holiday spirit!

Early Bird Special November 16th to 25th, a special deal for those who plan way ahead- if you order between November 16th and 25th you will get free shipping!

– November 25th come in the store or call for Plaid Friday Specials on sample collars.

From now until November 30th, breathe easy. We’ve been producing faster than our published turnaround times so you will get your goods well before Christmas without having to purchase a RUSH FEE.

December 1st-December 18th you will have to purchase a RUSH FEE to guarantee you receive the package by Christmas. From Dec 1-6 the rush fee will be $25, from Dec 7-13 it will raise to $35, and then $45 beginning Dec 14 through Dec 18. Yeah, good incentive to order early!

Orders that include Fetching Tags have to be placed by Wed. Dec 13th with applicable RUSH FEE (depending on date) to ensure delivery by Christmas.

After December 18th we will consider rushes on a case-by-case basis, but you will need to call the studio and speak to someone in order to find out if we have the parts/time/shipping leeway to get the goods to you on time.

Feel free to call us with any questions at any time, and you can even put in your order over the phone. The studio number is (510) 848-7226 and we are in the studio Monday – Friday 11am-7pm and Saturday – Sunday 11am-5pm.  The store is officially closed Mondays but, if you need to drop by, we’ll let you in.
